Does Netweaver 7.3 application server support web sockets?

We are using Netweaver 7.3 Java Application Server. We have a requirement to create a video chat application. We have built a prototype that uses 'webrtc' libraries and works on  'ApacheTomact8' server.

We are now wondering if we can migrate this application to work on Netweaver7.3 application sever.

So my doubts are :

1) Is 'Websockets' supported in Netweaver 7.3 ?

2) Is there a way to get the websocket based communication working using netweaver server.

Thanks,

A Jose

I don't think so since WebSockets are part of the Java EE 7 specification and SAP is still working on getting Java EE 6 support, see for reference.

I don't know if it's any value to you but AS ABAP (unlike AS JAVA) in NetWeaver 7.4 has WebSockets, they are called ABAP Push Channels (APC) or just ABAP Channels.
